Battle of the Cinematics.

aha, but thats where your wrong. if P2 attacks at the end of round 1, HE DIDNT BLOCK so he takes full damage, unless the attack looked shit then hes just taken alot of damage. So yes you can get 2 attacks in a row, but its very risky

You could do something that the first attack in each round did more damage. Just a suggestion.

sooooo pheonix.. i see ya took some of my triggers to do your move.. but im okay w/ that..lol. i just didnt think of making the camera shake like you did. but i dont think it would have fit the atmosphere of my move. since my char isnt undead, and isnt in a fire arena.. it wouldnt seem so chaotic...IM MORE ELOQUENT THEN YOU!!!:gsmile: lol. anyways. nice job... just wait till i jump into the water. then see what i do.lol.*rocking back and forth in chair, cracking up hyserically*

ps. did you directly copy and paste my camera rotation trigger?lol. cuz you had to change the rotation of it and your camera rotation wasnt set at zero first... oh well, assuming you even know what im taking about, im fine w/ it. take what you want from my moves!!!!.lol

another ps. where did you d/l the music from?

i didnt copy and paste your rotation trigger directly, i copied the actual rotation action (one of them) and then i played around with it a bit. Just you wait till i decide to end it and i use my Volcanic Eruption, i've been working on that for a couple of days now, and its seriously BIG, i got the music from Tribes 2, i cut out a chunk from the badlands music, i've also got some other useful musics, including ice wich is really cool and mystery like, it would work well with ure char. Also notice the little flames that appeared all over the volcano?

dont give away your damn plot man!!!!! your opponent might use it.lol.
p.s. send the music to me if ya can.lol. can you upload it on a PM for me?

heh, but he dosnt know WHEN, HOW ect or even if i'm going too, he just knows i can :D the total music byte is 4 meg, but i'll pull out some of the better parts and send them too you. Also heres a piccy of a map i just finished, guess what its called? Archipelago Arena! It isnt quite finished yet, but i'll post it when its done.
--Edit-- Woohoo, 250th post :D

heh, 250 post for me and 125th post for the thread, all at once :D anyways i've sent u 3 sound bytes, and heres the finished Archipelago Arena, naga and all sorts of wild critters roam around, so be prepared to kill alot of spectators ;)

here is a possible sig for the cinematic duel contestants.

:D

hey pheonix.. thx for the sound clips. how do you take clips from music?

well i use a Program called Audacity, i cant remember the home site, but theres plenty of other music editing proggys out there.

FireAarro are you EVER gonna tell me what hero your using and what the name of the hero is?

Holy sweet mercifal flying crap!!! This thread tripled in size in only 2 days!

Ok, there's no way that I'm reading through this whole thing, but I've read a few of the posts that looked the most important, and seen all the arena pics.

I like the arenas, alot!

Ok, on a few issues here:
1: Polymorph is legal in my opinion, and here's why: It does no damage. If P1 polymorphs P2, then P2 can try to counter it on his turn. If he can, then P1 just wasted his precious turn and P2 can attack. If he can't, then we go back to P1 who then gets what for all intents and purposes is a free shot, and then after that P2 will transform back.

2: While there is some merit to the switch order idea, I'd rather have it where it goes P1, P2, P1, P2 etc. If you want to dodge or counter an attack you can, and if you have time (20 seconds is alot...) you can try your own attack as well. No reason to allow someone to do 2 attacks like that.

3: Keep your friggin' music files SMALL! You may notice that Wc3c has a tiny freakin' attachment cap, so if your map exceeds it then your music is too big. Also, to be fair, you should leave room for your opponent to attach a song if he wants to.

4: No arena destroying moves, that's just dumb. "Oh yeah, the Volcano erupts and you die since there's nowhere to hide" sounds a bit noobish to me. You can USE the volcano etc, but nothing that turns into a one-hit-kill.

Also, I don't know if there were any maps attached that I was supposed to judge. If there was, then link to them for me, since I don't have the time to find them atm (busy holiday weekend, yesturday I blew off a TON of fireworks!)

-Insaniteus-

actually Insanateus, the move "Volcanic Eruption" doesnt erupt the volcano, alot of that guys moves start off with Volcano or Fire cause he's a fire based unit, basicly Volcanic Eruption is just a really big impressive looking explosion over his current location, and anyway if the judge decides it then nothing is a 1 hit kill. sorry if you thought i was actually gonna erupt the volcano, but there isnt any point to that as i cant use it on any other map.

I like that idea about polymorphing that way I won't be stuck always having to block or dodge. I deleted my attack and stored it on another map until I can use it. I just want to tweak the cameras a bit then my first block will be done and I can post it today (Sunday). I don't think I'm gonna change the music at all but I will use voice clips from the units during various moves. If after the battle someone is gonna put it all together into a big cinematic then sure change it. So when exactly this week was this supposed to start?

Ok, Insaniteus your ideas seems logical to me.

Anyone that dosnt PM me wether or not they are using RoC or TFT will be defaulted to RoC..

1: While the during of the contest could we possible have our own forum? for a while, I think we will be needing it, because as I see it the following threads are needed:
a) Battles. For the submitting of moves.
b) FAQ, questions and rules.
c) Judges summit. For the judges (all two of them ;) to discuss heavenly matters.
d) Tournament updates. Whos fighting who, how is things going etc..

This would make things a lot better, and ease the load of my webserver since I dont need a webpage for it then.
